To create or modify a Site Publisher website for one of your domains, perform the following steps:
1 – Open cPanel (yourdomain/cpanel).
2 – Click on (Site Publisher) from Domains section.
3 – Select a domain from the list of available domains, addon domains, and subdomains.
• If you only own a single domain, or if you accessed this interface via a link after subdomain or addon domain creation, the system automatically selects that domain and proceeds to the next step.
4 – Select a template from the available options.
• The Select a Template section of this interface displays a preview image, name, and description for each available Site Publisher template.
• If you selected a domain that already uses a Site Publisher website, the system preselects the current template.
5 – Enter or update the desired website content.
6 – Click Publish. A confirmation message will appear with a link to your new website.

This wizard guides you through the setup of a MySQL® database, user accounts, and user privileges, and you can create additional databases or users.

3 – Click Go Back. The new database appears in the Current Databases table.

The Select a Domain section of the interface lists the domain name and website directory (document root) for every domain that your cPanel account owns. If a domain currently uses a Site Publisher website, the interface also lists the website’s template’s name.

• Click the domain name to open the domain in a new browser window.
• Click the website directory to open that directory in cPanel’s File Managerinterface (cPanel >> Home >> Files >> File Manager) in a new browser window.

If your cPanel account owns a large number of domains, the interface automatically paginates the table. Click the page numbers in the top right corner of the section to navigate between pages of domains, or use the Search text box at the top of the list to search for a domain.

When you publish a Site Publisher website, cPanel automatically performs the actions.

DNS (Domain Name System) is the component of the Internet that converts human-readable domain names (for example, example.com) into computer-readable IP addresses (for example, 192.0.32.10). DNS uses zone files that reside on your server to map domain names to IP addresses.

There are several different types of records in a domain’s zone file. This interface allows you to create and delete A and CNAME (Canonical Name) records.

To add an A record, perform the following steps:
1 – Open cPanel (yourdomain/cpanel).
2 – Click on (Simple Zone Editor) from Domains section.
3 – If this account owns more than one domain, select the domain that you wish to manage from the Domain menu.
4 – Enter the Name and Address of the A record.
5 – Click Add A Record.

To add a CNAME record, perform the following steps:
1 – Open cPanel (yourdomain/cpanel).
2 – Click on (Simple Zone Editor) from Domains section.
3 – If this account owns more than one domain, select the domain that you wish to manage from the Domain menu.
4 – Enter CNAME record in the Name and CNAME text box.
5 – Click Add CNAME Record.

To delete an A or CNAME record, perform the following steps:
1 – Open cPanel (yourdomain/cpanel).
2 – Click on (Simple Zone Editor) from Domains section.
3 – If this account owns more than one domain, select the domain that you wish to manage from the Domain menu.
4 – Click the Delete link next to the record that you wish to remove.

DNS (Domain Name Service) is the component of the Internet that converts human-readable domain names (for example, example.com) into computer-readable IP addresses (for example, 192.0.32.10). DNS uses zone files that reside on your server to map domain names to IP addresses.

There are several different types of records in a domain’s zone file. This feature allows you to create, edit, and delete A, AAAA, CNAME (Canonical Name Record), SRV (Service Record), and TXT (Text Record) records.

To reset your DNS zone files to the defaults that your hosting provider specifies, perform the following steps:
1 – Open cPanel (yourdomain/cpanel).
2 – Click on (Advanced Zone Editor) from Domains section.

• A — This record maps hostnames to IP addresses. A records are essential because they allow DNS servers to identify and locate your website and its various services on the Internet. Without appropriate A records, your visitors cannot access your website, FTP site, or email accounts.
• AAAA — This record maps hostnames to IPv6 addresses.
• CNAME — This record creates an alias for another domain name, which DNS looks up. This is useful, for example, if you point multiple CNAME records to a single A record in order to simplify DNS maintenance.
• SRV — This record provides information about available services on specific ports on your server.
• TXT — This record contains text information for various services to read. For example, TXT records can specify data for the SPF (Sender Policy Framework) or DKIM (Domain Keys Mail Identifier) email authentication systems.
